When first for Ould England I left Killarney, And footed it merrily over the sea— The folks they so bother'd me all with their blarney I wish'd myself back with sweet Judy M'Cree; But I hit of a honey, who tipped me some money, And 'listed me, faith ! in the twink of an eye A loyal dragoon soon I strutted so funny, And devil a soul was so merry as I. A pair of jack boots, oh ! they bade me be claning, As rough as a badger their surfaces were ; " But, arrah !" says I, " and what is it you're maning Botheration ! I never can polish these here. That boon they convineed me of sense I was lacking, And wasn't half up to the best of their fun ; For scarce had I touch'd 'em with Warren's Jet Blacking, Ere they shew'd my nate features as bright as the sun. Sure I thought 'twas Ould Nick, that deceatful rapscallion, Had play'd me some trick, and the phiz was his own; But I learned from the mature that drill'd the battalion, 'Twas the beauty of Warren's Jet Blacking alone; So I carry the face of each lass that passes, On both my jack boots ; and, no longer a loon, When I visit Killarney, the swate Irish lasses Will simper and sigh for the Irish Dragoon This Easy shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT WARREN, 30, Strand, London ; and sold in every Town in the United Kingdom. Liquid, in Bottles, and Paste Blacking, in Pots, at 61.,12d., and 18d. each. 1117. Be particular to inquire for Warren's, 30, Strand; all others are Counterfeit.

SLAVERY IN CHINA. In a country so populous as China, where wages are extremely low, slavery can never exist to a very great extent. . . . _ The Government gives full permission to the Tartar sol diers of the eight banners to buy slaves, who should, how ever, be duly registered. Poor people, when in want of the necessaries of life, may sell their children ; for it is better, so the Statute says, that their offspring live in bon dage than starve. Merchants are permitted to buy them, but public officers are strictly prohibited to traffic in people under their jurisdiction. Every owner of slave's is obliged to get them married ; if, however, he fails to do so, he is amenable to the law. The children of such marriages belong to him ; and though the parents may redeem themselves, their sons and daugh ters remain with the master. Marriages of slaves with free people are prohibited. A slave, after having gained his freedom, may become a citizen, if his behaviour is such as to entitle him to that privilege. The Jaw provides also for the good treatment of slaves ; but as they are considered as minors, their masters becoffir resposible for their conduct. If they run away, they re ceive, for the first offence, only a few lashes ; but when they repeat the same they are punished with merciless cruelty. On the one hand the Chinese Government gives ample power to the slaveholder, whilst on the other it constantly interferes with his rights. A master is not permitted even to manumit his slave, unless the district Magistrate has sanc tioned the measure ; and he carp refuse to give his consent for the most trivial reasons. From the contents of the few laws upon the subject, it appears that numbers of the tribes on the frontiers and of the Meaoutsze are caught and sold. The practice, though general, is by no means legal. In a country where a name for liberty does not even ex ist, it would be difficult to define slavery, unless the meaning of the word be the right of possession obtained by purchase. Viewing the matter in its true light, the Sovereign is the only free man in the empire, because he has the power, either directly or indirectly, to enslave his subject. A faithful Minister calls himself a horse or dog ; for the ser vices which he performs bear a striking resemblance to those performed by those domestic animals. Slavery ex tends throughout all classes, with this difference only, that some privileged individuals bear the yoke of a few masters, whilst they exercise their power over many. Slavery in China, however, is not so oppressive by many degrees, as in Siam and Cochin China, where the King divides his subjects among the grandees, and forces them to work for their masters from four to six months every year. The natural consequences of this oppressive re gulation are utter poverty and wretchedness. In China, only the industry of the subject is taxed ; and the Supreme Government has wisely ordained that the prin cipal burden should not, apparently, fall upon the great mass of the people. As a descendant from a conqueror, the emperor owns all the lands, and, from the principle of might making right, justly demands a tax from the farmer. This is paid both in kind and money, and amounts to such a sum that the labourer can never, how much soever he ex erts himself, amass a capital from the produce of the land. This may also account for the extraordinary circumstance that few large land-holders are to be found in China ; for the profits obtained from landed property are so small that capital can be much more advantageously employed in other branches of industry. A peasant, though seemingly free, works not for himself but for the Emperor, and re ceives but a bare subsistence for his labour. Lest, how ever, the Supreme Government might be execrated by the labouring classes, the taxes are virtually farmed. An offi cer is appointed over a district to collect a specified amount of taxes ; if he does not furnish the stipulated sum, he him self is responsible for the deficiency ; if he oppresses, in order to collect something for himself, or merely to raise the necessary amount, and is accusad of tyranny, his pro perty is confiscated. The blame falls entirely upon him, whilst the Government issues a soothing edict, declares its paternal care, and sends another benevolent tax-gatherer. Thus individuals have to bear the reproach, whilst the high functionaries always maintain their character for compas sion and the deepest regard for the national welfare. The Chinese Government does not exasperate multitudes by making exorbitant demands, but attacks rich capitalists, who must then either perish or indemnify themselves, some way or other, from the people. This is one of the great secrets of Chinese political science. It accounts for a great many things, which 'other wise appear to be riddles. The Chinese are slaves and a free people ; they groan under oppression, and boast of a paternal g overn ment : though this is a paradox, it is, t, never theless, a strict fact. The Government reasons with the people as with freemen ; it explains its acts, and even goes so far as to accuse itself of neglect ; but woe to him who raises a voice or does not humbly worship the condescend ing Majesty of the rulers. Though oppressed on all sides they nevertheless are persuaded that the Emperor's pater nal love abhors and laments the pressure which bears them down, and that he is ready to hasten to their-relief as soon as their sufferings are known. The fact is that theory and practice are sadly at variance, and the iron law of necessity makes slaves of men, who, under a better system of govern ment, would, we think, hold forth an example to the world of contentedness, and of a love of order ; and these quali ties of the mind are, we presume to think, more general amongst all classes of this great empire than in any other community of the world. In the comparison between the minds of China and of Europe, the question of the rectitude of their opinions on the words honour, chivalry, and liberty, are now becoming interesting. We will not say that it is the Government opinion, but these words are unknown to the people, and are unappreciated by them. The subject is one of too great importance to be discussed in one number, and we may probably return to it when the port is clear of ships, and the attention of the community can be given to it. We only now remark, that the system of the Chinese Go vernment is an apt illustration of the principles of Toryism and Conservatism, which the Emperor and his officers are able to enforce to an ultra degree, because the people are ignorant, and, consequently, submissive. The French vintage this year will, it is feared, tun out as bad as that of 1829. Our coast letters are filled with accounts of the da mage and dreadful loss of life occasioned by the tremendous storms of the past week.—Kentish Gazette. Yesterday morning the Commissioners of Woods and Forests engaged a number of workmen, for the purpose of t a king down the old and unsightly brick wall which extended to Kensington-gardens, a distance of nearly half a mile. On its site will be erected light iron railings, by which means visitors frequenting the Park will have a commanding view of Harrow, Pinner, and the neighbouring country. A number of trees have been rooted up, and the branches of others looped, for the purpose of allowing a more pleasant view into the Park from the _houses opposite. An elegant carriage en trance is also being made into Hyde-park, near Kensington garden -gate. ANTIQUITY OF FREEMASONRY.—TiIe secret sys tem which was developed, even in the heathen initiations, dis plays some faint traces of those important observances that were practised in the infancy of the world, before man apos tatized from his Maker, and offered up his devotions to ficti tious beings and material substances. But in the system ob served by the Essenes, who were pious worshippers of the Great Jehovah, we find more unequivocal tokens of the pre sence of that sublime art which animated the devotion of the ancient patriarchs, and kept their hearts in sweet communion with their heavenly Father. The institutions of this cele rated sect displayed, in the clearest manner, the sublime purity of Freemasonry and though some of its favourite dog mata were evidently the offspring of superstition, yet they sprang from a true principle of piety, and a desire to avoid that overwhelming deluge of false faith and defective practice which universally prevailed, even amongst " God's own people," and rendered the advent of the Messiah so necessary to purify the world from its pollutions.—Freenwson's Quar terly Review. Yesterday afternoon a Coroner's Inquest was taken before Mr. Baker, at the Cock and Magpie, on the body of Thomas Hughes, aged.6o, who committed suicide in a cell at Worship -street Office, by nearly severing his head from his body with a razor. Thomas Eagles, an officer of Worship street establish men t, a b ou t fi ve o ' c l oc k on Wednesday after noon, was assisting Tilt to secure his prisoners, vi hen he heard a sudden fall in the cell where the deceased was, and on turn ing round he observed two streams of blood flowing from the cell. On opening the door he found the deceased laying on the floor, weltering in his blood, and unable to speak. He was quite dead, and there was a dreadful gash across his t h roat. A razor wa s i n hi s r i g h t h an d , w hi c h w i tness t oo k away*. 11 , had been tak en b e f ore th e M a oi s t ra t e i n th e morning, cha r g ed with being drunk, when' Mr. Grove fined him five shillings ; but he would h ave b een di sc h arge d a t eight o'clock.

Verdict, An Am er i can paper, the Philadelph i an, in an ad vertisement, offering a reward of thirty dollars for the dis covery of a runaway apprentice, says, His name is Daniel Murphy, about st i feet high, heavy eyebrows, and large crooked teeth. He is lately from the county of Longford, Ireland, which is evident from his broad accent, and a bare spot on the back of his head." PRICE SD. INSOLVENT COURT-THURSDAY. Jane Tacker, alias Jane Packerid,ge, a female of a " cer tain age," was opposed by Mr. BoDKIN, on the part of Mr. Poland, furrier, Strand, and in person by two creditors named Jenkins and Eavill. . . A young woman, named Wilcox, who had been in the employ of Mr. Poland, stated that in January, 1834, the insolvent, accompanied by a person whom she represented as her brother, called at the shop and selected two muffs and two sable boas, which she said were required for a wed ing in the country. She would send for the articles, and in three days afterwards they were sent for to No. 16, Beaufort-buildings, Strand, and a receipt desired to be sent with them. The insolvent was found there. She apolo gised for the apparent disorder of the house, saying that she. had just taken it on lease, and was not settled. She in formed her that her brother had gone into the City to get change for a check, and the money would be paid on his re turn, at five o'clock. The goods were left, on her giving a reference to a house in the neighbourhood, but on inquiry being madowshe was not known. The goods, which amounted to 211. and upwards, had not been paid for, and the insolvent disappeared from her residence. James Ray, warehouseman to Mr. Poland, called on the Saturday night, the day on which the goods had been deli vered by Miss Wilcox, for the money. He stayed at the house from about nine o'clock until one o'clock on the Sun day morning, and left without the money. He went on the Monday and found she had disappeared, as well as the pro perty. He had ascertained that the house was one of bad repute. Mr. BODKIN—A disorderly one. I suppose she had made before some excuse to Miss Wilcox for the disorder ? —(Laughter.) Mr. Loader, an ironmonger, Hungerford-street, Strand, had supplied goods to the same house to the amount of 561. He called on the Monday for the money and found his cus tomer had flown. There were about twenty tradesmen there on similar errands. The property had been removed. Mr. Perkins, another sufferer, stated that the insolvent had contracted a debt of Si. ss. 9d. with him for iron mongery (mods. Ile went to the house, and found it quite empty, and the parties had disappeared. 'Fhe Learned CHIEF COMNIISSIONER, in giving judg ment, said that the account the insolvent had given of the disposition of the property was extremely unsatisfactory. The judgment would be at the suit of Mr. Poland, and she was sentenced for fraudulently contracting his debt, to an imprisonment of nine calendar months. COURT OF REQUESTS, THURSDAY. KINGSGATE-STREET.—The majority of the cases heard yesterday before Mr. Commissioner DUBOIS, were unusually rich, and presented the most laughable instances of the folly of human nature. THE APOTHECARY AND THE CATS.--A mahogany-faced woman named Squab ! appeared against a gaunt long-visaged apothecary, residing in the neighbourhood of Brunswick square, for the sum of 11., alleged to be due under the fol lowing rather extraordinary circumstances. The apothecary was a bachelor, and, requiring a confidential servant, had hired the plaintiff at the rate of 1/. per month. Her ser vices were, indeed, that of a housekeeper, but the apo thecary had behaved in such au " houdasheous" manner, that the plaintiff was compelled to leave defendant apothe cary's service, somewhat before the consummation of a legal term of notice. The following is a verbatim report of the complaint and the rejoinder. Mrs. Squab—Sir, this 'ear man lives all alone by himself, and so he hired me at 13/. a year to do fi». him ; but I hadn't been long in his service, before I found that I had to do for four cats as well—(Laughter)--and to cleanup arter them as well.—(Considerable Laughter.) Well, Sir, one night one of these 'ear cats was missing, and he flies in a passion, and jest, no better nor no wuss, he ses to me, ses he—" Mrs. Squab, youv'e drov that cat into a consumption.—(Roars of laughter, in which the worthy Commissioner could not help joining)—and d— you, if you don't find that cat, I'll be the werry death of you—and so, with that, I run'd out." Mr. COMMISSIONER—You could'nt have done a more discreet thing, Madam. _ _ _ Mrs. Squab—You're werry good ; and so I perseeded to go away ; and next day, when I went for my things, he unlocked my box and took out my purse, in which I'd got 21. les., and he took away a sovereign to pay himself the month's warning. Mr. COMMISSIONER—And did'nt you take him before a Magistrate ? Mrs. Squab—No, Sir ; I was glad to get back what he'd give me. Mr. COMMIS;IONER (to defendant)—Now, Sir, what :lave you to say to this ? . . Defendant, with considerable gravity, entered into the following statement :—lt's very true, Sir, all that she has stated. Ido keep four cats, and I did undertake to keep this woman as well, but she, during my absence from town, kept all sorts of company ; my poor cats were neglected, my saucepans left dirty, and at last to such a pitch did things come, that one of my poor cats absconded altogether. —(Laughter.) More than that, Sir, she says she is visited by her grandmother, who goes into her bedchamber at night, and feels all over her. The facts are, Sir, she's mad. Mr. COMMISSIONER—ProbabIy you have a habit of walking in your sleep, Sir, and that might occasion Mrs. Squab to talk about her grandmother feeling her all over, as vou call it.—(Laughter.) Defendant —No, Sir, quite the contrary ; and I took the sovereign for the month's warning, as well as to indemnify me for my cat. I've a great passion for cats. Mr. COMMISSIONER—WeII then, Sir, you must pay for it. You must refund the sovereign, Sir ; and if Mrs. Squab thinks proper, she may take you before a Magistrate for helping yourself to it. The apothecary left the Court in high dudgeon. A NORSE WOT WOULDN'T Go.—A linen-draper of the thorough "James Jessamy" breed. summoned a livery-stable keeper, residing in Gray's Inn-road, for is. 6d. Comasszorma—What is it for ? Plaintiff—Aw—Sir, aw—l'ad hoccasion to go down a little way bout of town, into the country, an so I thort I'd hire a norse. COMMISSIONER—A what, Sir? Plaintiff—A norse— (Laughter). Well, Sir, no sooner ad I rid about thirty yards, than this hidentical animal comes to a full stop—aw —so I spur'd him—aw—and I hot him several hits on the 'ed, and—aw—finding myself in hactual danger, I turned him round and rode back agin.—(Considerable merriment.) COMMISSIONER—Did you see the horse before you mounted him ?—(Laughter.) Plaintiff (with unconscious simplicity)—Aw—oh ! yes, Sir ; I saw him ; indeed, I'm considered a very good judge of a norse. COMMISSIONER—No doubt of it. It seems, my good man, you got astride a norse, as you call it, and either you was frightened at the horse, or the horse was frightened at you ; or probably he was too good a judge for you. — (Laughter.) In either case 7s. 6d. was no great price for the hire of a horse, and having paid it, you cannot be allowed to recover it on such a frivolous pretext. The plaintiff gathered up his white kid gloves, and look ing unutterable things at the Court, strutted out of it with very nearly two yards of wounded feelings. 14s. 17s. 20s. 20s. 225. gds. 345.

The invariable success which 11:,s, for more than a quarter of a ecatury, attended CACKLE'S ANTIBILIOUS or FAMILY APE MENT PILLS, and the beneficial effects which have constantly resulted from their use, have given rise to so great and increasing a demand, that the Proprietor feels himself called upon to express, in an especial manner, his most grateful acknbwiedgments to the Public, for the unequivocal tes timony thus given to their efficacy ; and he trusts that the high patronage already bestowed upon them, will present an inducement to those who labour under INDIGESTION, BILIOUS and LIVER COMPL ',ANTS (and who are not yet acquainted with their virtues from experience), to resort to this Medicine, with the consoling and coatident . expectation of speedy and permanent relief. The weather continues to be of the very worst kind for harvest operations, and a large quantity of grain remains uncut, and as much of it is yet quite green, farmers, particu larly in the higher parts of this county, are of opinion that large breadths will not ripen at all this year, and that they must be cut down in a state of pefFect greenness. Yesterday the rain fell in torrents, accompanied with a strong wind, which must have proved very destructive to stooks as well as to standing corn. Such. is the backward state of the season, that on many high-lying farms, not a sheaf has been cut in perfect condition. A proprietor in an upland district, who has about an hundred acres of most splendid oats, says be will be thankful if he can save only fifty of them in a state fit for the stack-yard ; indeed, so little hope has he of this fine crop attaining maturity, that he has directed his servants, so soon as all his clover is used, to commence cutting his oats for the cattle. To-day the weather has cleared up, and is mild and dry ; but we observe snow lying on Goatfell.—Ayr Observer. Mn.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE• MANSION-HO USE. The LORD MAYOR received the following communication on the subject of the coal trade, the complaints made about which have given rise to a great deal of speculation and ap prehension in the North : " My Lord—Seeing the coal monopoly again agitated in Common Council, I take the liberty of handing you one of our circulars. sent to all the Members of the House of Commons, and some of the Members of the House of Lords ; yet, notwithstanding all our legitimate exertions towards the success of cur South Durham Railway Bill the Lords literally kicked it out, and Lord Londonderry, believe, absolutely had thirty or forty proxies in his pocket to use, if necessary, besides. We have now tak upthe line afresh, under the designation of the New ce South en Dur ham Railway, to effect a junction with Clarence, at their Buyer's-green Branch, by Way leaves_ h i into our coal field, which way leaves we have already obtained, so that all the great Dukes, Lords, and Clergy cannot now stop our coals from the London market. I would, therefore, humbly suggest that you would be pleased to let this truth be made known to the public at large from your Common Council Chamber at y our next meeting, and oblige your most obedient servant: a Whitfield H ouse, Wals ingham " , jOAci‘ti.El:3lBW36.O 0 L E R. The following is the circular : Sir----It is with ex t reme re l ucta n ce .that we deem our selves constrained to intrude upon you ; but we trust, in representing the peculiar hardship of our situation, and in displaying the cruel injustice which a body of c oalowners are attempting to perpetrate, that you w ill pardon this abrupt intrusion, and afford us such aid as our case may appear to entitle us justly to expect from every disin terested member of the Legislature and generous advocate of justice. " This considerable district (as our petition now before the House of Commons describes), extending over several thousands of acres of rich agricultural country, abounds in " This serious impediment to our warfare and pros perity the local interests have made every effort to re move by the projection of a railway, called the South Durham Railway, which would open out for remote places more especially, a coal of superior quality. and which is not inferior to any in the kingdom, a lime ad mitted on all sides to be the first agricultural manure in England, and in extraordinary request wherever the dis tance and facility of carriage will afford the agriculturist access. Of these two more particularly important mi nerals, now inadequately supplied, 'we are, it appears, to be denied the benefit in consequence of the distant coal owners of Newcastle and Snnderland (in fact; those com prisinc, the wh o l e coa l t ra d e o f th e nor th), regar di ng t h e introduction of this excellent coal into the London or ge neral market with feelings both of a selfish and unjust na ture, and in resorting to every possible 'means, directly and indirectly, to obstruct our successful application for an Act of Parliament. We regret to say that as the welfare of a large body. of agriculturists are at stake, as also the pros perity. and livelihood of thousands of persons of all grades in society residing along the intended line of railway (who are with scarcely an exception looking with intense anxiety upon the exertions of the admirable measure, as well as upon those of its interested opponents), we, landowners and proprietors of property, are impelled to step forward, and by an honest and plain statement to every friend of equal justice and right to solicit his support ; and we, there fore, with a firm reliance on your unflinching advocacy of the people's cause, beg most respectfully and earnestly to implore you will have the goodness to institute an inquiry into our representation, and in the event of your finding we have truly conveyed to you a correct and honourable state ment, we trust that the inhabitants of this locality may rely upon your invaluable interposition in Parliament in their behalf ; and, reiterating our repugnance to occupy your attention with any frivolous representation, and assu ring you we shall be happy to afford you every further ex planation, and that stern necessity has impelled us to this appeal and intrusion, for which we offer you our sincere apology, we, with the most profound respect and esteem, beg to subscribe ourselves, Sir, yours, very respectfully." (Signed by 26 Proprietors.) It would be disingenuous not to state the arguments used by those who deny that any monopoly exists in the north, and assert that the evils of the system had their origin in this metropolis. They say that the proposed increase of price by the coalowners of the Tyne and Wear is 2s. on the old Newcastle chaldron, or about 9d. a ton, a variation in price which occurs in London every Monday, Wednes nesday, and Friday. So trifling an advance will, they argue, have no effect whatever on the price charged by the coal dealer to the consumers, that price not depending on the first cost of the article, but on the supply, and the de mand for it in London. The prices of coals in the north very seldom varied, and, as they say, it is equally well known that the prices in the London market fluctuate every market day, a clear proof that the price in the north has very little, if anything, to do with the price in London. A ton of the best coals is, they declare, put on ship board in the Tyne for 10s. 3d. The ship receives for carryinc , that ton to London about th e same sum , t o w hi c h i s t o be added 2s. 9d. a ton for the city of London and other charges. These three items make up the sum at which the coals are sold wholesale in the London markets, and the price at which they are delivered frem the ship in the pool ; but this price, of 235. a ton, is very different from the charge made -by. the London coal-dealer to the consumer. The north country coalowner there fore gets, they reason, not so much for his coals as the London dealer gets • for the mere cartage of them through the streets of the metropolis. The advancement of a paltry 9d. a ton at Newcastle is, they add, nothing com pared to the imposing of 10s. or 20s. a ton, which is prac tised daily by the London coal-dealers upon their customers and consumers, as the customers may satisfy themselves by comparing the prices at which the coals are sold in the coal market with the prices charged to them in the coal-dealers' invoices. Upon these grounds the supporters of the northern regulations agree in favour of the great owners. The price paid by the consumers of coals in London is, they admit, exorbitant, but the northern coal-owners are no way to blame for it ; but the evil, they contend, is in London, and that between the side of the ship and the consumer's cellar. The LORD MAYOR observed, in allusion to the letter which he received, that the question would, in all proba bility, be soon disposed of by the highest legal authority in the country. GUILDHALL. John Winch, the conductor of a Mile•end omnibus, at tended to answer the complaint of Mr. Marriott, ono of the common councilmen of the ward of Farringdon Without, for obstructing the carriage -way in Fleet-street. The defendant stopped only because he was hailed by a gentleman, who could not cross through the line of car gages ; and the coachman corroborated this defence. Mr. Alderman WHITE fined the defendant ss. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Inspector Campbell, of the E division, was brought before Messrs. LAING and BENNETT, charged by Robert Rowe, late landlord of the Welch Harp, Fulwood's rents, Holborn, with having been concerned in compromis ing a felony. The prosecutor, on the night of the 23d of March, 1836, kept the Welch Harp public-house, when two young col legians were taken into custody, the one for an assault, and the other for stealing a lobster. They were both taken to the station-house and locked up, and in the course of the night they felt anxious that the matter should be amicably settled, and he had been informed by a person named Small that Inspector Campbell, then a sergeant, had received a certain sum of money to assist in the compromising of the case. The Magistrates then subjected the prosecutor and a witness whom he brought forward, to a strict examination, in the course of which it appeared that the prosecutor's house had been reported (as ill conducted) by the defendant, in the disch►rge of his duty. Another witness (a police officer) stated himself to have been cognizant of the alleged offence, but bad not men tioned it for several months. Mr. LAING was convinced it was a trumped-up case, for the purpose of destroying a respectable officer, for having strictly performed his duty in exposing the illegal practices of Rowe's late house. The defendant was discharged with out being called upon for any defence. LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday Maria Dove, a nymph of the pave, who but a few days ago narrowly escaped death from the effects of a dose of arsenic, which she swallowed in the vicinity of this office, was brought before Mr. CosisEs on a peace warrant, charging her with threatening to take away the life of Miss Susan Mackey, another of the frail sisterhood. The complainant, a dashingly-dressed dame, some days ago met with a sailor, of whoLt she had some previous know ledge, and who treated her with something to drink. On the following day the defendant, Miss Dove, came to her house, and having reproached her with encouraging the visits of her friend Jack the sailor, made use of the most violent threats, and from her genera► character and disposition, she had no doubt she would carry her threats into execution, unless she was restrained. Mr. COMB ES (to the complainant)—What are you ? Complainant—l have been a misfortunate young woman, your Worship, but at present I am under the protection of a gentleman. - Miss Dove, in reply to the charge, had been informed that the complainant, who was no better than herself, had been seen with her friend, " Jack Johnson," with whom she had lived for seven veers, but who had lately deserted her. She became naturally annoyed, and told her if ever she met, her in his company "to stand clear of her." She was now, however, sorry for it, and would promise not to molest her fur the future. Mr. COMBES, on this promise, and her paying for the warrant, discharged her. THE RUSSIAN RAIL-ROAD.—The Emperor Nicholas is extremely anxious for the introduction into Russia of these wonderful accelerations of commerce. In this spirit it is that be has afforded his countenance and protection to the first undertaking of this kind that has been set on foot in his kingdom. The St. Petersburgh and Zarscoe-Selo Railway is the property of shareholders, among whom the Emperor himself is an 2Xtensive proprietor, and it has most extensive privileges conceded to it by an ordinance, dated the, 21st of March last. It commences nearly in the heart of St. Petcrsburgh, and, continuing for about eighteen miles, terminates is the great park of Pawlowsk, a place of great resort for the citizens, and where a splendid edifico for public entertainment, with concert and ball rooms, conserva tories, water, gardens, and fountains have been erected. The ironwork on the rail-road is of the most massive description. The rails weigh 651bs. per yard. The locomotive engines are provided with au apparatus which clears the rails from all ob structions before the on-Coming of the engines, and to give notice to the inhabitants of the approach of the trains each carries a piece of mus i cal mechanism, which gives out a soun d equal to that of a brass band. The line was commenced in April last, and is expected to be opened in the course of the present month. The Tory faction, through their agents, who are empl o y e d i n all quarters, are piating out their feelers to se duce some soft-headed candidates of their party to become candidates in the case of vacancies for the metropolitan bo roughs and neighbouring counties; but whatever candidate depends on the Tory stock-purse will be deceived, for the subscriptions come in but very slow, and many have backed, out, and will not contribute any further supply. --.....,..._zit00m, AIDIOII novel, ...,ocaspur-si,ree...
